There are home improvement novices who believe they can do just about anything they see on TV.  This is true in some cases (like, adding a wallpaper border around the edge of your kitchen ceiling, for example, or changing a doorknob), but not in the case of wiring.  If you are the type who refuses to hire a contractor, even though a licensed contractor would most likely be in your best interest, here are some links to fill your knowledge bank:
